I have been nominated for the Versatile Blogger Award by Pearls Diamonds and Everything Else. Thank you so much for nominating me! I want to sincerely thank all of my blog readers and followers!!! Have a great Friday and weekend! – Carrie

The Rules:

1. Display the award logo on your blog.

2. Thank the person who nominated you.

3. State 7 things about yourself.

4. Nominate 15 other bloggers for this award.

5. Notify these bloggers of the nominations.

First of all, 7 things about me:

1. I love to cook!

2. My favorite sport is volleyball. I still hold a high school serving record.

3. I’ve always wanted to be a dancer in a music video.

4. Family is really important to me. So much so, that I have one sister that lives next door to me, a brother-in-law that lives six houses away and my parents that live a few miles away. I wish my other sister and brother-in-law and mother & father-in law all lived closer than they are, even though they are only 45 minutes away. I am very lucky that my sisters met great men that fit well in our family and my husbands brothers married two great women. I love them all!

My sister’s engagement party was a beach theme and maxi dresses were the big thing to wear. It was a great event with people who made my sister feel blessed that are in her and her fiance’s life. I would love to hear about your engagement party and what it was like!

On Sunday I took my daughter’s to a tea party at our neighbor’s house. My favorite item was the teapot shaped sugar butter bread! I would love to hear what you did this weekend!

I finally feel like Spring is here and I feel like seersucker is definitely a warm weather fabric. I mentioned in my 435 Magazine article that menswear was something I was into for Spring and Summer and here is a look to reflect that.

I started pinning beautiful shoes last night on Pinterest and finally had to call it a night. A girl can dream! You can check out the high heels I posted on my Pinterest board “Luxurious Lovelies.” Some of the brands that I think are fabulous are Christian Louboutin, Valentino, Saint Laurent and Miu Miu.

Ok Baldwin Peeps and Maple Leaf Streeters, I have exciting news to share…the new El Patron Mexican Restaurant in Baldwin City, KS, is open!!! We have been waiting since last summer when we heard a mexican restaurant was coming to town. We had dinner there on Memorial Day to celebrate my Mom’s birthday this week. Along with Snow Crab Legs, Mexican food is one of my favorites! For this being El Patron’s opening weekend you would never know as there were no kinks in the menu or service, as everything was wonderful! Even the margaritas were good! I am looking forward to going back again and again! – Thanks for reading! Carrie Barth
